Apportionment
Apportionment, a division of a whole into parts (usually unequal) proportioned to the rights of more claimants than one. It is either (1) Apportionment in respect of time, or (2) Apportionment in respect of estate.Apportionment in respect of Time.--At Common Law there is no apportionment in respect of time. when a successor in interest succeeds just before a rent or other periodical payment falls due, he takes, at Common Law, the whole, and the executors of his predecessor take nothing (Clun's Case, 1Rep. 127). This was remedied by 11 Geo. 2, c. 19, s. 25, which apportioned rent between the representatives of a deceased tenant for life, and the person succeeding in remainder, and by 4 & 5 Wm. 4, c. 22, passed to obviate doubts which had arisen upon the earlier Act.The (English) 'Apportionment Act, 1870' (33 & 34 Vict. c. 35) now provides (but without repealing the above Acts) that all rents, annuities, and dividends, and other periodical payments in the nature of income shall, like int...

Complete destruction. - The common-law rule that a lessee is not relieved of his obligation to pay rent through the accidental destruction of the building demised to him presupposes that some part of the premises remains in existence for occupation by the tenant, irrespective of the destruction. If the destruction of the premises is complete - nothing remaining, the subject-matter or thing leased no longer existing then the liability of the tenant for rent ceases or extinguishes. ... Thus, it has been held that the destruction of the property extinguishes the liability for rent, as under a lease of a river front and landing consisting of a narrow footing at the base of a bluff without any wharf, dock, or pier, where the unprecedented ravages of the river effectually took away the use of the landing by washing away all but...
